Netflix Drops Unnerving Trailer For 'Leave The World Behind' With Ethan Hawke And Julia Roberts
The full trailer for "Leave the World Behind" is here, and it looks awesome.
The plot of the Netflix film starring Ethan Hawke and Julia Roberts is described as follows:
In this apocalyptic thriller from award-winning writer and director Sam Esmail (Mr. Robot), Amanda (Academy Award winner Julia Roberts) and her husband Clay (Academy Award nominee Ethan Hawke), rent a luxurious home for the weekend with their kids, Archie (Charlie Evans) and Rose (Farrah Mackenzie). Their vacation is soon upended when two strangers — G.H. (Academy Award winner Mahershala Ali) and his daughter Ruth (Myha’la) — arrive in the night, bearing news of a mysterious cyberattack and seeking refuge in the house they claim is theirs. The two families reckon with a looming disaster that grows more terrifying by the minute, forcing everyone to come to terms with their places in a collapsing world.
Does that get the blood pumping a little bit? Well, it certainly should, and the trailer will only raise your interest even more.

"Leave the World Behind" looks awesome.
What do we all think of the trailer? I think it looks pretty damn good, and the cast is LOADED with talent.
Julia Roberts, Ethan Hawke and Mahershala Ali all in the same cast is a murderer's row of talent for a Hollywood film.
Every single one of them has starred in outstanding productions, and Mahershala Ali is criminally underrated. He brought the "True Detective" franchise back to life with an incredible season three performance.
Now, he's teaming up with two other stars for an apocalyptic thriller. Don't even waste your time asking. Yes, I'm interested.
